Pre-written request text

Copy this text and paste it into your 311 request:

Requesting a pedestrian crossing (Level 2 PXO or Intersection Pedestrian Signal) at Dundas Street East and Dagmar Avenue. The intersection lacks protected crossing infrastructure despite being on a wide arterial road with documented pedestrian KSI history within 1km. Please initiate a warrant study and forward to Transportation Services.

What to expect

  • 1.You'll receive a service request number immediately
  • 2.Transportation Services reviews within 15 business days
  • 3.You may receive a follow-up email or letter with their assessment

Why this works

The City tracks 311 requests by location. When they see repeated, consistent requests for the same intersection, it signals community priority and can accelerate the warrant study timeline.

The City is accepting requests for a safety study. If you have 2 minutes, you can file a 311 request here: dundaseast.ca/take-action
